burry holms
laid for lunch or a timely snack
when the tide is low and sea is slack
look this side far worm’s head stands
north side the banks of the loughor sands
gone now the tidal gully’s rip
that at high tide lets the atlantic slip
into the moat around this island jointed
faulted between here and the headlands pointed
feel it! ~ can you feel it?
the romance of feet that were here before
irresistibly springing to the fore
say your prayer ~ ask permission
to continue this our walking mission
back cross the beach long and flat
to cross the sand dunes higher than high
back where our walking’s front door mat
sighs and sighs oh ditto that
